THE—EMPEROR’S SPEECH AT THE OPENING OF THE
FRENCH LEGISLATURE.
The session of the French Legislature was opened on
the 22d by the Emperor in person. The following is
his speech :
Messieurs les Senators et Messieurs lis Depu
tes. —The opening of the legislative session permits
of a periodic exposition of the situation of the empire
and the expression to you of my views.
As in preceding years, I will examine with you the
principal questions which interest our country.
Abroad peace seems assured everywhere, for every
where the means are sought for of amicably settling
difficulties in place of ending them with the sword.
The meeting of the English and French fleets in the
same ports has shown that the relations formed upon
the field of battle have not been weakened. Time has
only cemented the agreement of the two countries.
In regard to Germany my intention is to continue to
observe a policy of neutrality, which, without pre
venting us at times from being displeased or satisfied,
leaves us, nevertheless, strangers to questions in
which our interests are not directly engaged.
Italy, recognized by almost all the Powers of Eu
rope, has strengthened its unity by inaugurating its
capital in the centre of tlie Peninsula. We may count
upoa the scrupulous execution of the treaty of the 15th
of September, and upon the indispensable mainten
ance of tne power of the Hoi a bather.
The bonds which attach us to Spain and Portugal
are still more strengthened by my late interviews with
the sovereigns of those two kingdoms.
You nave shared 'rfrith me the general indignation
produced by the assassination of President Lincoln,
and recently the death of the King of the Belgians
has caused uuanimous regrets.
In Mexico the government founded upon the will
of the people is being consolidated. The opposition,
conquered and dispersed, have no longer a chief. The
national troops have displayed valor, and the country
has found guarantees of order and security which have
developed its resources and raised its commerce with
France alone from twenty-one to seventy-seveu mil
lions. As I expressed the hope last year that our ex
pedition was approaching its termination, I am coming
to an understanding with the Emperor Maximilian to
fix the epoch for the recall ot our troops before their
return is effectuated, without comprising the French
interests which we have been defending in that remote
country.
North America, issuing victoriously from a formi
dable struggle, has re-established the Union and
solemnly proclaimed the abolition of slavery. France,
which forgets no noble page of her history, offers up
sincere wishes for the prosperity of the great Ameri
can republic, and for the maintenance of the amica
ble relations which soon will have had a century’s
duration. The emotion produced in the United States
by the presence of our troop9 on the Mexican soil will
be pacified by the frankness of our declarations. The
American people will comprehend that our expedition,
to which we invited them, was not opposed to their
interests. Two nations equally jealous of their inde
pendence ought to avoid every step which might affect
their dignity and their honor.
It is in the midst of populations satisfied and con
fiding that our institutions perform their functions.
The municipal elections are conducted with the great
est order and with the most entire liberty. The laws
upon coalitions, whi<ffi gave rise to some apprehen
sions, have been carreWmt with strict impartiality on
the part of those interested. The working class, in
telligent as it is, has comprehended that the more fa
cility is accorded to it to discuss its interests the more
it is bound to respect the liberty of each and the se
curity of all. The inquiry into the co-operative socie
ties has come to demonstate how just were the bases
of the law' which has been laid before you on this im
portant subject. This law will permit the establish
ment of numerous associations to the benefit of labbr
and providence. In order to favor the development
of them, I have decided that authorization to meet to
gether shall be accorded to all those who, outside of
politics, may desire to deliberate respecting their in
dustrial and commercial interests. This liberty will
be unlimited except by the guarantees which public
order requires. The equilibrium of the budget is se
cured by a surplus of revenue. In order to attain thia
result it was neceBary to effect economy in the greater
part of the public services, among others in the War
Department.
The army being on a peace footing there was only
the alternative of reducing either tlie regimental
cadres or the effective. The latter measure was im
practicable. since the regiments hardiy mustered the
necessary strength of men. The good of the service
counselled even their augmentation. By snppress-
iug the cadres of two hundred and twenty compa
nies, forty-six squadrons and forty batteries, but
dividing the men among the remaining companies
and squadrons, we have rather strengthened than
weakened our regiments. Natural guardian of the
interests of the at iuy, I would not have consented to
these reductions if they had necessarily altered our
military organization or broken tlie existence of men
whose services and devotion I have been able to ap
preciate.
The budget of the pnblic works and that of educa
tion have not undergone any diminution. It was of
U9e t o preserve to the grand enterprises of the State
their fertile activity and to maintain the energetic
impulse of public instruction.
Agriculture has made great progress since 1862. At
this moment it suffers from the lowering of the price
of cereals. That depreciation is the necessary conse
quence of the plenty of the harvests, and not of the
suppression of the sliding scale. 1 have thought it
useful to open a serious inquiry into the condition and
needs of agriculture. It will, I am convinced, con
firm the principles of commercial liberty.
In the midst of always increasing prosperity unquiet
spirits, under the pretense of discussing the liberal
progress of the government, would hinder it from
marching by taking from it all force and initiative.
The constitution of 1852, submitted to the acceptance
of the people, undertook to establish a system, ration^
ally and wrisely based upon the just equilibrium
between the different powers of the State. It is at ah
equal distance from two extreme situations. With a
Chamber, mistress of the fate' of Ministers, the Execu
tive is without authority and without spirit. In the
same way it is without control if the elective chamber
is not independent and in possession of the legitimate
prerogative. Our constitutional forms, which have a
certain analogy with those of the United States, are
not deficient because they diff er from those of England,
Each people should have institutions conformable to
its genius and traditions. Assuredly every govern
ment has its defects; but casting a look at the past I
rejoice at seeing at the end of fourteen years France
respected abroad, tranquil within, without political
prisoners, without exiles beyond its frontiers.
The nation for four score years has amply discussed
theories of government. It is now no longer useful to
seek the theoretical means of improving the moral and
material conditions of the people. Let us employ our
selves in spreading everywhere intelligence, healthy,
economic doctrines, the love of what is good, and re
ligious principles. Let us solve by the freedom of our
transactions the difficult problem of the just distribu
tion of productive forces, and let us attempt to ameli
orate the condition of labor in the fields as in the work
shops. When all Frenchmen invested w r ith political
rights shall have been enlightened by education, they
w'ill discern tlie truth without difficulty, and will not
suffer themselves to be seduced by possible theories.
When all those who live by daily wages shall have
seen increased the benefits which assiduous toil pro
cures. they will be firm supporters of a society which
guarantees their welfare and their dignity.
Finally, when all shall have received from infancy
those principles ol faith and morality which elevate
man in his own eyes, they will know that above hu
man intelligence, above the efforts of science and rea
son, there exists a Supreme Will which rules the desti
nies of individuals as w r ell as of nations.
DEPRESSION IN MEXICAN SECURITIES.
The Times of the 23d, in its city article, 9ays: Mexi
can securities were severely depressed by the persis
tent symptoms that her present course of order and
progress may be interrupted and the reign of anarchy
re-established.
THE ACTION OF THE UNITED STATES IN REGARD TO AF
FAIRS IN MEXICO.
The news per tha Australasian in regard to the atti-.
tude taken by the American government towards
France ou the Ml. u-,an question attracted much atten
tion, and the grav ity of the situation was generally ad
mitted.
The London Times thinks the best hopes of the
maintenance of peace lie in the deep feelings of friend
ship and sympathy which Americans have towards the
French people. Tli6 Times says: “The language of
M. Druyn de Lhuys leads to the belief that the aux
iliary corps w'ould be recalled to Europe at Once if the
American govei nment would give a pledge that Mexico
should be left to settle its own future destiny; and we
hope so moderate a solution of a most embarrassing
question will be accepted by President Johnson.
DEPARTURE OF AN AGENT FOR MEXICO—THE TIME
ARRIVED FOR THE WITHDRAWAL OF THE FRENCH
TROOPS.
London, January 25, 1866.—The Paris correspon
dence of the Times gives a minute account of Sal-
liard’a interview with Napoleon and his hurried de
parture for Mexico. His instructions, verbal only, are
to represent to Maximilian that the time has arrived
for tlie withdrawal of the French troops.
THE REVOLUTION IN SPAIN.
A telegram from Madrid dated the 22d January says
“Official confirmation has been received of the intel
ligence that Gen. Prim entered Portugal on Saturday
last, the 20th.”
Prim is stated to have delivered the horses, arms
and equipments of his followers to the alcade of Can-
asola, Portugal.
Disturbances had taken place at Reus and Valencia
The province of Valincia had in consequence been pro
claimed in a state of siege.
Tranquility continued to prevail at Madrid, and it
was asserted that the state of seige in that city would
be raised in a day or two.
It is officially announced that the insurgents had
no engagement with the royal troops before entering
Portugal.
THE FENIANS.
Tlie special commisssion for the trial of the Fenians
continued its operations in Dublin. There were still
twenty-seven cases to dispose of, and it is stated that
the judges would continue their sittings, if necessary,
until the last day permitted by the circuit arrange
ments—i. e., about the 17th of February.
The Irish police were scouring the country in all
directions in search of Stephens. One day the Head
Centre was reported to be at Cork; another day
among the wilds of Cannaught. A favorite theory
w’as that he was still in the neighborhood of Dublin,
but it was currently rumored at Belfast, that he had
fled northward, and had been actually traced as far
as No wry.
Three alleged Fenians—one of them an ex-captain
in the federal army, Thomas Henry O'Brien, of the
Eighty-eighth New York Irish Volunteers, had been
arrested at Belfast.
Proposed Disposal of Public Lands in
Certain Southern States.
In the House on the 7th, Mrl Julian of Indiana,
brought up the bill for the disposal of public lands for
homestead actual settlement in Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana, Arkansas and Florida, with some amend
ments which he had prepared. They were in reality
supplementary to the Freedman’s Bureau bill, which
has lately passed the House, simply extending the
provisions of the old homested laws to the blacks now
free. In connection a communication from the Com
missioner of the Land Office was read to the House, in
which that official, who is commonly known as a radi
cal, advocated the extension of the benefits of the new
homestead bill to jiardoned rebels. At the end of the
reading Mr. Stevens, who had imperfectly heard it,
inquired who the author was. Upon being told, he
ejaculated something which sounded vastly like “damn
him,” with a more profane prefix. This is an indica
tion of Mr. Stevens’ difference w’ith other radicals.
The bill expired in a parliamentary way to-day, but
Mr. Julian will demand the attention of the House to
it immediately after the special orders are disposed of,
since it is highly important. It gives freedmen privi
leges, like loyal white meq’s jirivijeges, to pre-empt
parcels of eighty acres in the large body of public land*
of the five States named.
.News from Texas.
Galveston, February 3, 1866.—Ex-President Bur
nett lias published a list ol* severe charges against
General Gregory in his administration of the Freed-
men’t) Bureau. General Gregory says they are false,
and demands a retraction or full proof.
Colonies of Europeans are coming into Texas. Poles
are settling on Trinity river, near Palestine. Germans
and others, from the Northwestern States, are settling
in the colonies.
Flake’s Bulletin, a thorough Union paper and gov
ernment organ at Galvcstop, denounces Gen. Howard's
management of the Freedmen’s Bureau, and speaks of
him as a religious hypocrite.
Arrest of Cbiliun Secret Agents in New
York._
The N. Y. Herald of the 8th aays:
“Senor Vicuna Mackeuna, who, it is alleged, has
been acting in this city as the confidential agent of the
Chilian government, and Dr. Joseph Rogers, have been
arrested by the United States Marshal Murray, on a
charge of preparing and fitting out in New York a
military expedition against the Spaniards, in violation
of our neutrality laws. They were yesterday^ taken
before United States District Attorney Dickinson,
when counsel on their behalf claimed that they should
be discharged, on the ground that Senor Mackenna. is
connected with the Chilian Legation at Washington.
Telegrams from official quarters at the capital state
that Senor Mackenna “may not be regarded as belong
ing to the Chilian Legation.” The Grand Jury have
found bills of indictment, upon which the parties,
who have given bail for their appearance, will be
brought to trial in due time.
